Conundrum Red 2021

3rd Generation Winemaker Charlie Wagner explains the inspiration behind Conundrum: ‘As a kid growing up in California I remember seeing my grandfather sitting at his kitchen table blending different wines together. It didn't matter what the grape varieties were. He would blend, taste and explore…’  

The Wagner's believe in being both serious and playful, and this wine fits the bill. A rich, dark red, it offers aromas of ripe berries and plums, warmed by a hint of cocoa. Dried fruit and the taste of chocolate-covered cherries come through on the palate, while a wisp of smokiness makes this wine – created from dark red varietals including Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon – the perfect complement to grilled meats and full-flavored dishes. Tannins are rounded out by the ripeness of the berries for a texturous but smooth mouth feel.
